The York-Adams League has announced its boys' basketball all-stars for the 2022-23 season, as voted by the league's coaches.

Each of the league's three divisions revealed its first and second teams and honorable mentions, as well as Player and Coach of the Year. Division I champion Central York, D-II runner-up Eastern York and D-III co-champion Littlestown all had both players and coaches earn top honors in their divisions.

Central York's Greg Guidinger was selected as the Division I Player of the Year after leading the Panthers to the York-Adams League championship and a spot in the state tournament. The 6-foot-7 junior forward, healthy all season after an ankle injury kept him out for half of last year, has averaged 17 points, 8.5 rebounds and 4.1 assists per game and developed into a leader for Central, which played most of the season without lone senior Ethan Dodson. The Panthers had two other players — sophomores Ben Rill and Ben Natal — named to the first team, but Guidinger always seemed to shine under the brightest lights.

Panthers coach Jeff Hoke earned Division I Coach of the Year after guiding Central York to a breakout season. The team went 11-11 last year and missed the postseason but entered this year with high hopes and arguably the league's most talented roster. Hoke's group delivered on that promise, capturing division and county titles.

Division II Player of the Year Austin Bausman has averaged 16.3 points, 6.6 rebounds and 3.0 assists per game to lead Eastern York (18-8) all the way to states. The 6-foot-4 senior has paired with 6-6 sophomore and first-team selection Carter Wamsley to give the Golden Knights one of the most imposing front courts in the league. Bausman, a Marywood basketball and baseball recruit, has also hit 40 triples this season.

West York's Garrett Bull and Eastern York's Justin Seitz were named D-II Co-Coaches of the Year. Bull's Bulldogs captured a repeat division title despite losing three starters from the team that also won the league tournament. Seitz led the Golden Knights to an 11-0 start, and the team has followed a 15-6 regular season with a fifth-place finish at districts and a spot in the state bracket.

Division III Player of the Year Jake Bosley was an all-around weapon for Littlestown, which captured at least a share of its sixth straight division title. The 6-foot-4 senior forward has averaged 14.9 points, 8.6 rebounds, 3.8 assists and 2.8 steals per game and been an active presence on both ends of the floor. Teammates Christopher Meakin and Zyan Herr added first-team honors.

Thunderbolts head coach John Forster was named D-III Coach of the Year. Littlestown has won six outright or shared division crowns in his seven seasons. The Bolts (20-6) finished third in the District 3 Class 4A tournament and will continue their season at states.

Each of the league's three Players of the Year surpassed the 1,000-point milestone this season. Guidinger reached the mark in Central's first playoff game and will have another season to chase school history. Bausman achieved the feat early in the season and is now over 1,300 career points, while Bosley eclipsed the threshold in late January.
